Kitchen sink repair at your home in Higher Ince

If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Whether it’s damage from fitting or moving appliances and dents and scuffs on cabinets, we can usually put it right.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Repairing versus replacing in Higher Ince

A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by preparing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
  3. We shape the repair to match the original.
  4. The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
  5. Finally we polish or seal it.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Questions from Higher Ince

What does kitchen sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your WN2 postcode.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Are there extra charges for Higher Ince?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you cover the whole of Wigan?

All of Wigan, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One picture of the whole sink or cupboard door
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Landlord and trade work in Higher Ince

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Higher Ince as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
